Moab is a town that seems to be rebeling against the Mormon state it's stuck in.
Monroe is a beautiful little town full of friendly people. I would love to visit there again very soon
Arches National Park was full of wonderful sights. The La Sal Mountains are gorgeous!! I love Moab and will come back there someday.
Moab is beautiful and an excellant place to base your visits to the surrounding area. The natural beauty in Amazing! Check out rafting the San Juan river 2 hours south of Moab.
Moab … I love this place, it's practically my second home. It's the perfect place to be if you enjoy the outdoors. Hiking, climbing, mountain biking -- it's all there!
Salt Lake City … The city is worth several days of exploration, with skiing in the winter, tons of history, and top quality entertainment. Affordable, interresting, and friendly for a U.S. city.
International UTE Hostel in Salt Lake City … Cool hostel. It has a super friendly staff who go out of their way to help and a great, relaxed atmosphere. It's very clean, probably the cleanest hostel I have ever stayed in. It's very easy to get to the ski fields and I'd definitely go back.
International UTE Hostel in Salt Lake City … This place has a homely vibe and great people. The area is quiet and safe, and you can walk into town in 15 minutes. It has clean rooms and great staff. It's just like staying with friends.
International UTE Hostel in Salt Lake City … Great hoste: very clean and cozy with fantastic staff in a convenient location.
Lazy Lizard Hostel in Moab … I planned on staying 2 nights but didn't leave for two weeks. The people there were very entertaining. Moab for me wouldn't be complete with out the Lazy Lizard!
The Avenues Hostel in Salt Lake City … A great hostel to stay while you are in Salt lake. The staff were nice and friendly. I got a lot of help. They were ready to help whenever I needed any information. Recommended.
The Avenues Hostel in Salt Lake City … Great hostel. The best hostel I've ever stayed at. It is located in a very nice neighborhood. The staff are friendly and it is clean and they even gave me a down comforter, which is unusual for a hostel. They also have all the information around the town and discounted ski tickets, which saved me more than $10. With that saving alone, my stay in the dorm was almost free. It is also very close to the supermarket. All in all, it is very conveniently located and a very nice place to stay after skiing.
Lazy Lizard Hostel in Moab … Ken, you are the man. I loved staying at the Lazy Lizard. I especially loved being in that great atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back soon.
The Avenues Hostel in Salt Lake City … Convenient location, nice neighborhood. It is really a nice place for the travelers. It is easy to get to the slope once you figure out the bus system. You may need the help of the staff on that.
The Avenues Hostel in Salt Lake City … Easily one of the best hostels I've stayed in, really good safe neighbourhood (It IS Salt Lake City after all). The staff are really friendly, the manager, Savos and his assistant, Virgil are really good guys.
Lazy Lizard Hostel in Moab … People, wake up! It's cheaper then a tent site, and you get everything you need. If you need a mint on your pillow, Moab has nice hotels and B&Bs, but if you are biking all day and just want a shower and a place to get horizontal, this is it. You can get a cabin that you can lock your gear in and sleeps 4+ people and still only spend around $10 each. I have stayed here off and on for over 14 years now, and I tell you what, I have saved a fortune on lodging and got to ride all the trails that the B&B people got to ride. LL, you Rock!
International UTE Hostel in Salt Lake City … A very home-like hostel. It's close to the light rail to take to the bus to get to the Alta ski resort. It's also close to downtown. Salt Lake City has great public transportation, but it's limited on Sundays. I strongly recommend getting familiar with the bus/TRAX system (http://www.rideuta.com/), if you are going without a car. It will get you from the airport to the slopes, and everything in between. The manager is extremely helpful and kind. There is no hot tub. A convenience store and a Wal-Mart Supercenter are both close. Also, there are cheap restaurants nearby. This is the best hostel I've ever stayed in.
Mystic Hot Springs & Hostel in Monroe … I stayed at Mystic for one night in August 2004. It is essentially an old hot springs resort in a small town. It really isn't a hostel, though. The owner has been collecting old pioneer-era cabins and fixing them up. I stayed at one - I believe it was about $35 or $40 -but you can also camp. The hot springs are great and locals use them, too. Despite the fact this guy has a lot of acreage, it is an easy walk to the main street. I wouldn't go out of my way, but if you're going through Utah this is a great place to kill a few days.
